[Source: NME.com] A deluxe edition of Nirvana’s debut album Bleach is set to be released in November.

The re-issue is to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the album and the expanded CD/double-LP will include a never-before-released live performance, special packaging and the first run of the double-LP will be on 180g white vinyl, just like the first run of the original LP.

The album was originally recorded over three sessions with producer Jack Endino at Seattle’s Reciprocal Recording Studios in December 1988 and January 1989. It was released the following June and sold 40,000 copies initially. The band’s subsequent success saw Bleach go on to sell 1.7 million copies in the US alone.

The upcoming 20th Anniversary edition has been re-mastered from the original tapes at Sterling Sound in a session overseen by Endino. It will include an unreleased live recording of a complete February 9th, 1990 show at the Pine Street Theatre in Portland, OR, and a 48-page booklet featuring shots of the band that have never been released to the public.
